Restoring A Ruined Earth: The Heroic Mission Of
 Thomas Berry
 By Vincent Di Stefano

Those who have understood the magnitude of the environmental situation that presently confronts us are faced with a two-fold task. The first is to clearly identify the nature of those forces that have brought us to where we are. The second is to envision the changes needed - both in our thinking and in our actions. One of the most articulate and visionary allies in this task is the late Thomas Berry, theologian, mystic and cultural historian


Nero's Fire
 By Jim Rigby

http://www.countercurrents.org/rigby020711.htm

There is a larger fire smoldering that threatens to take down our entire nation. Our nation's infrastructure shimmers and crackles with heat. The rich are getting richer and poor are getting poorer. The poor did not start that fire, but, like Nero, our rich elite assure us that America's problems come from the weakest among us

 By Prahlad Shekhawat

India has consistently achieved the second highest rates of GDP growth but moved down to 134 position in the Human Development Index in 2009, compared to 128 a year before. The 2010 report puts India far behind in terms of achievements in tackling multidimensional poverty. The report concludes that economic growth has not lead to human development or less inequality

Pack Journalism Anti-Gaddafi Propaganda
 By Stephen Lendman

Western media, especially America's, mostly ignore multiple Obama wars (including against Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia), focusing mainly on promoting terror bombing Libya, slaughtering civilians to save them


Deconstruction Of Discourse On Terrorism
 By M. Mohibul Haque

http://www.countercurrents.org/haque020711.htm

The undue emphasis given on non-state terrorism and almost completely ignoring the acts of terror committed by states is responsible for misleading data and statistics as well as the definitional dilemma relating to terrorism. Terrorism must be defined and determined on the basis of the acts committed rather than the actors involved


Poverty, The Biggest Polluter?
 By Neerja Dasani

http://www.countercurrents.org/dasani020711.htm

In a recent meeting with some news paper editors India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said, "As Gandhiji said, poverty is the biggest polluter. We need to have a balance." So far the media has faithfully reproduced this quote as being that of MK Gandhi. But it isn't.

 Academic And Speech Freedoms
 By Stephen Lendman

Post-9/11, anyone challenging America's war on terrorism faces possible recrimination. Moreover, anyone critical of Israel leaves them vulnerable to vilification, intimidation and persecution. Even university professors are targeted, including distinguished tenured ones - censured, suspended and/or fired unjustly
